Five hundred and sixtieth IX buy road
A moment later, Song Wan hurried in from the gate. Seeing his face in a hurry, it seemed that there was something urgent.
Song Wan was a familiar person. He met several times and had generous gifts. Wen Pin also knew that his background was complicated and that there were various support from the scholars in Jingzhou behind him, so he did not put on airs in front of him. He asked Song Wan to climb up the platform without letting him sit down. He asked half-jokingly: "Song Wan! You have been busy for a long time, where is the good horse you promised me?"
Wen Pin asked the same question when he met last two times. Song Wan always replied that he needed to prepare a ranch, to open up a certain pass, and to ask a senior official to not be impatient. Wen Pin habitually asked another question today, but heard Song Wan answer: "Mr., the horses are outside the city."
"What?" Wen Pin stood up in surprise and stood in front of Song Wan a few steps: "The horse has arrived? Are you lying to me?"
Song Wan said respectfully: "How dare I deceive the Lord of the Mansion? The horse has arrived, it's true."
"How many horses? Where did they come from?" Wenpin asked.
Song Wan poked out two fingers.
"Twenty horses?" Wen Pin asked.
Song Wan laughed: "Two hundred horses!"
This number was really unexpected. Wen Pin subconsciously grabbed Song Wan's shoulder: "Shuyu, how could such a good thing happen?" The fastest update is:
When Wenpin was under Liu Biao's command in his early years, he traded with Zhang Xiu, who was stationed in Wancheng, and obtained hundreds of war horses, using them as the main force of his own army. Later, as time passed, these war horses were either worn out or injured, and some were gradually getting old and unbearable to use.
At that time, Jiangdong broke through Xiakou and repeatedly invaded westward. Although there were not many war horses in Jiangdong, there were outstanding cavalry generals such as Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Taishici who were born in Youzhou, Liaohai and other places. Therefore, Wen Pin fought with him on land and often lost to him.
Later, Cao Gong withdrew his troops to the north and used Wenpeng as the prefect of Jiangxia. He also gave him two hundred additional horses, so that he would not be at a disadvantage when fighting against the Sun and Liu armies.
Unless there are elite troops of Cao's army with thousands of tiger cavalry, two hundred war horses are not a minority. The generals of Jiangdong led 2,000 infantry, usually only fifty war horses were given; Liu Bei's Jingzhou army had many northern cavalry generals and recruited Wuhuan Zahu cavalry, but according to Wenpin's estimate, the total number of cavalry was only more than 3,000, less than 4,000. Wenpin's 4,000 infantry and 300 cavalry were already quite majestic.
Who would have thought that Song Wan had such ability to provide two hundred horses in one go?
"Where is the horse now? Take me to see it!" Wenpin said loudly.
"Because I was worried that the horses would go directly to Anlu City and would be discovered by irrelevant people, I placed it in Hengwei Mountain, 80 miles west of the city, upstream of the river. If the general wants to see it, he might as well follow me." He lowered his voice a little: "To be honest with the Lord of the House, this group of horses is military horses! So..."
Wenpin Dim sum is understood. The horse trade is under surveillance. Since it is a military horse, it cannot be more popular. It should be farther away.
"Okay! Then let's go."
There are so many troubles recently that it is rare to make people happy. In such troubled times, if there is a horse, there will be one more cavalry, and if there is one more cavalry, there will be one more powerful force for a surprise attack. So Wen Pin excitedly got off the platform and asked Song Wan to wait in the tent first. He went to summon his close subordinates and prepared to take advantage of the day to watch the horses.
Song Wan sat in the big tent for a while, suddenly a entourage transferred from behind the tent and asked, "Mr. Shuyu, my general asked, "Does there be enough staff left in the Hengwei Mountain? Is the guards who followed the teacher there before?"
It turned out that in the past two months, Song Wan had traveled around Jiangxia County, and there was always a team of guards sent by Wenpin to accompany him. However, when Song Wan came back, she disappeared.
Song Wan's expression remained unchanged and responded: "That's right. How important is this matter? How can we not leave anyone to take care of it? The subordinates of the Fujun are all there, and they really dare not be negligent."
After a while, Wenpin assigned trivial matters and led dozens of entourages and a team of infantrymen out. Song Wan was about to lead the way, but Wenpin only made it easier to take a boat, so the group moved to the Jashui Wharf, summoned several fast boats, and walked along the winding river, along the winding river.
To be honest, the speed of the anti-current boat is not much faster, even if the boatman rows hard, it will be the same. It is obvious that when he set off in the morning and is about to arrive, it is already between Weishi and Shishi. Fortunately, the summer afternoon is very long, and the sun is still hanging high in the air, emitting heat.
Song Wan pointed to the hillside north of the river and said, "The terrain of Jiangxia must be much clearer than me. However, this Hengwei Mountain is an excellent place to raise horses that I have found after searching for many days."
Wen Pin narrowed his eyes and looked at it: "I haven't been here before... What's the point in this world?"
"I got off here and entered between two hills, as if I was walking in a deep valley. As I walked, the terrain became wider and wider, the ground became flatter and flatter, and the grass was deep and fertile, which was suitable for horse grazing. There were mountains in the outer circle like dragons, surrounding the entire flat ground... We didn't expect the horses to escape, and it was easy for outsiders to explore in depth."
"Okay!" Wen Pin smiled with his hands.
Several accompanying generals frowned repeatedly. Someone came out and said, "Mr. Mansion! I think..."
Wen Pin waved his hand so that they didn't have to say much.
He turned around and said to the boatmen: "You are waiting here, Mr. Song and I will go and see!"
These boatmen are also Wen's corps, who are able to fight on the water and are well-trained. They bow and bow and salute at the moment: "Abide by the order!"
Song Wan led the way, Wenpin got off the boat, and the group rode on horseback and went on.
Shortly after they left, dozens of ships turned out from the back of the river beside, and they followed Wen Pin and others all the way. The soldiers on the boat lined up and followed the boatman's guidance and quickly surrounded Hengwei Mountain.
Song Wan didn't know about this situation. He only led the way diligently and led Wenpin all the way forward.
The terrain here is indeed as Song Wan said. First, there were two mountains standing together, with lush trees in the deep forests and lush trees, and the daylight was as wide as the daylight; as they walked, they became more and more open. Bypassing a cliff, everyone saw the whole grass like a felt carpet. As Song Wan said, there were many horses who did not hold saddles and went back and forth at will. Some bowed their heads to drink water by the gurgling stream, while others were in groups of three or five, galloping in groups.
"It's true!" Wen Pin opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it for a long time.
After a while, he looked at Song Wan: "There are so many horses!"
Song Wan couldn't help laughing: "What kind of person do you think I, Song Shuyu, are you? If you don't have integrity, can you continue to do business?"
Wen Pin laughed twice and made a gesture in slightest light.
Several soldiers followed Song Wan from beginning to end, and then they stepped a little further.
At this time, several horses were jogging over curiously, looking at Wen Pin and others, sniffing the metal arm guard on his wrist, sniffed, and ran away again.
"It's indeed a war horse!" Wen Pin saw the mark on the war horse clearly, and suddenly he had some doubts: "Shuyu, where did these war horses come from? Who was the original owner?"
Song Wan smiled and said, "The original owner of the horse is here. If the mansion has time, why not meet him?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a tiny sound of metal collisions around him sounded.
It turned out that Wen Pin's subordinates held the hilt of the knife in the backhand and made a tense attitude. Although they followed Song Wan out to see the horses, the generals and schoolmen were all wearing iron armor under their robes, as if they were going to fight with someone. Fortunately, Wen Pin and Song Wan were chatting and laughing all the way, and they were not embarrassed.
"Two hundred horses!" Wen Pin sighed and stared at Song Wan: "There is such a grand face, I guess he is the big man behind Mr. Shuyu. Then it doesn't matter if you see him!"
Song Wan breathed a little relieved. When she was about to agree, she heard someone not far away laughing and said, "How can you get started with a rich and generous position? Wenfu Jun, it's a ridiculous praise!"
Everyone turned around quickly and found that there was a man wearing a straw hat and a straw raincoat near the stream, sitting lazyly facing everyone. Wen Pin and others had just seen him, just thinking that he was a horse or a fisherman, and they didn't care.
"When I was a thief in the mountains, I heard a saying that I opened this mountain and I planted this tree. If you want to pass by it from now on, you can leave your money to buy money."
